Radare2 Commands Specification

This project defines the command compatibility layers for RADARE implementations, to ensure portability across different tools that interact or provide radare-like shells or scripting capabilities.

Suggested Implementations

• Radare2 (original C implementation)
• R4 Ghidra (Java-based)
• R2FRIDA (TypeScript in FRIDA agent site)
• r0 (formerly known as ired)
• radare1 (stopped development in 2009)
• rair (radare fork in rust)
• Other RADARE compatible shells like rizin

Layers

Layer 0: Bare Minimum

Basic commands for moving around and hex editing

Layer 1: Basic Compatibility

Defines the minimum set of comments that must be supported for a RADARE implementation to be considered standard and compatible. This layer ensures basic interoperability between different RADARE variants.

Layer 2: Extended Commands

Defines the minimum set of comments that must be supported for a RADARE implementation to be considered standard and compatible. This layer ensures basic interoperability between different RADARE variants.
